Chapter 14 - 14: The After Effect

After the party, Li Lei who was propping his chin with his hand with a laptop on his lap. His cold eyes were unusually heated.

A memory played through his mind.

Before the announcement, he went to search for Xiao Yun to call her. He stops his step and saw her talking with a girl, Subconsciously he didn't call her and eavesdrops her conversation.

" Xiao Yun, do you have feelings for Wang Li Lei ? " ask the other girl

His ears twitched and his heart feels tingly. It was akin to waiting a death sentence, A word from the girl could turn his world up-side-down. His heart rate raises he could feel his blood moving back. He felt the time slowing down everything is moving in a slow-motion.

" Umm... I think so. "

The girl's answer doesn't confirm that she has a feeling for him, but it also confirm the fact that he still has a chance !

" But, what about Hong Yan Xun? "

His eyes turns chilly all of a sudden, a man name came in their conversation. From the tone that's being used by the other girl, it seems that Xiao Yun had a past fling with that man. He frowned in anger.

" What about him? "

" Don't you like Him? "

" I like Hong Yan Xun? No way! When did I say that? "

He sighs in relief when he heard Xiao Yun's answer.

He taps his laptop before saying to a man who was sitting next to the chauffeur and his eyes turned terrifyingly chilly " Do a background check on Hong Yan Xun "

" Yes sir. " He took Li Lei's order and nodded .

A sudden image of Xiao Yun flashed on his mind and his cold face lets out a loving and charming smile.

The man and the chauffeur gasps subconsciously, they were stupefied. They both have the exact same thought,

' The master just smiled !! '

Li Lei hold something out of his pocket.

He pulls out a lace handkerchief with a small embroidered initial. He looked at the initial passionately and his heated gaze stop at it, the initial was X.Y.

Li Lei view the night sky and he went back in trance, his eyes glittered he lightly put his lips to the handkerchief

' Xiao Yun, I wonder if you remember? That day when we first met ? 10 years ago ?'

Meanwhile,

Mrs. Yu knocked on her daughter's door. " Xiao Yun? "

Xiao Yun pace her feet towards the door and opens it before answering

" Yes, mom? "

" No, It's nothing I just want to remind you. I put all your presents in the next room, be sure to take open them all ."

Xiao Yun linked her index fingers and she asks her mother hesitantly.

" Mom..um.. Li Lei present, where did you put it ? " she look at her mom nervously

Her mom chuckled mischievously " I will tell Old Xue later to take his present to you. "

( * Old Xue is the head maid )

" Mom, don't tease me !and thank you please do so. " Answer Xiao Yun.

After Mrs. Yu went back from her room, Old Xue brought Li Lei's present to her.

She opened the small blue package box and open the gift carefully.

A small beet red box containing a crescent-shaped moon and a small card.

She read the card and her face became hotter, her face even hotter than a freshly-steamed steam bun!

A hand-letter containing beautiful yet strong strokes of words :

' Whenever I lay my eyes on a crescent moon, I remember you.

I hope you will like the gift, Wang Li Lei. '
